In 2018, the City of Arcadia and LeSar Development Consultants established a Five Year Plan to Prevent and Combat Homelessness for the City of Arcadia. This Plan included data on persons experiencing homelessness (PEH) in Arcadia, efforts to reduce those numbers, and goals for the next five years.
Since the adoption of the Five Year Plan, the City of Arcadia has made great strides in achieving its set goals and proactively seeking new ways to assist Arcadia’s unhoused residents. Despite these efforts, economic hardship, lack of affordable housing, and the COVID-19 pandemic have contributed to a rise in homelessness within the city. Arcadia continues to research new and emerging solutions and expand programs and services.
The 2024 Five Year Plan provides a comprehensive overview of Arcadia's PEH data, programs, goal progression, and framework for the remaining years of Measure H and beyond. The Plan was drafted by the Recreation & Community Services Department in collaboration with the Homeless Stakeholders, an Ad Hoc Committee representing a diverse group of individuals who represent many viewpoints and all five Council Districts within Arcadia. Since the establishment of the Homeless Stakeholders in 2022, the Committee has meet quarterly to receive pertinent information on homelessness and discuss possible solutions. This Five Year plan is culmination of two years of research and direction from both the Homeless Stakeholders and Staff.
